Man, we're having a lot of fun with these podcasts that we are bringing you guys and really just kind of shaking it up. And you know, what we're really doing is we're repurposing content. So we've shipped now shared a podcast that was from part of our coaching call within shift and that was to both give you a behind the scenes and also to repurpose some content. We reshard when our number one downloaded podcast with you guys and repurpose that content. And now this week, we are sharing an episode here, where I was actually interviewed on someone else's podcast and we asked her Hey, can we cross promote? Can we share that episode over here with our audience? And she said yes. So I am super excited to bring this to you guys today. And before I tell you about it, this is just a huge reminder, you guys repurpose your content, you have so much amazing content, go back to those blog posts, those social media posts, and how can you share them again and repurpose them?

So in this episode, Amanda and I talk about creating purposeful and sustainable goals for the upcoming years. So none of us have to endure that extreme burnout. This was an episode back in 2023, at the beginning of 2023. And so it is fitting that it is being aired at the beginning of 2024 over here. Because it is so important that we just you know, start and finish this year super strong. We don't want to have any burnout in 2024. So let's dive into this episode. Let's learn how to set some smart, sustainable goals that are going to be purposeful and fulfill us as we are growing our business. Bree,

also just an all around great person to know. So everyone should definitely go check out her podcast and follow her on Instagram. But I know that one of the things that you help your students and your clients do is get strategic, not only with their goals, but also with their revenue streams. And I would love to hear you talk about the connection point between those two a little bit, because I think that's something that we can overlook, we can set goals that maybe are arbitrary or unrealistic, and that aren't really connected with the revenue streams that we have or where we actually are in our business and where we're trying to go. So I would love to hear you touch on that a little bit.

Absolutely. I would love to see one of my favorite things to talk about. And what you said it's absolutely true. And it's I think it's because we sat down whether it's at the beginning of the year beginning of the quarter, or we're just like feeling inspired and feeling like hey, I need to get it together a little bit more And so we start to just start write down goals. So like, oh, I want to hit this, or I want to make this amount of money, or I want to do this, and I want to do that. That's all great. I'm all for like taking your inspiration and running with it. But the problem I see happen is that if we're just doing that, and we're not analyzing where our money is coming from analyzing what is currently working, and really deep dive into where our time is going, and how that translates to the income that's actually hitting our bank account, because at the end of the day, if we're spending all of our time and setting these goals on these things that aren't actually helping our bank account, why are we doing it? I mean, you know, we have our passion projects, and we have these different things that feel our why. And I understand that. But at the end of the day, we're running a business, right. And so we need to be strategic about all of that. And so before we set goals, there's just a few steps that I like to kind of run through, as we're doing them to make sure that we're setting really smart goals.

And so the steps you're looking at what's bringing in money currently, what's not? What else do what are those steps? Yeah.
